Although it is said to be easy to raise, it needs to be raised after all. Otherwise, the tortoise will die if it is hungry. So what is the laziest way to raise the turtle? Teach everyone!

1. Food

Although it is said that turtles eat any food, it is always cheap to feed Foods with low nutritional value may cause malnutrition, and special care must be taken. Turtles need a lot of calcium and should be fed a diet rich in calcium. Recently, a nutritionally balanced turtle-specific feed has been launched on the market, which can be eaten with confidence. In addition, carp fish feed and dog food are also very suitable food. Occasionally feeding some deboned fish, snake meat, mice and other fresh food will surely win the turtle's love.

Feeding only fish and meat slices will cause malnutrition and need to add water-soluble nutrients. The above-mentioned foods are provided to turtles that often inhabit water, such as tortoises that cannot go into water and prefer plant foods, and are less suitable for feeding with artificial feed. Generally, vegetables such as leafy vegetables, cabbage, and carrots can be used, together with nutritional supplements. In order to use the feed of Jiuguan bird to feed.

2. Containers

Aquatic turtles can be raised in containers that can hold water such as water tanks. The actual size of the turtle is larger than it looks, and the amount of exercise is also large, so a larger cage is required. On average, a tank with a side length of 60 cm is still too small and is best kept in a storage box for clothes.

The tortoise is not exposed to ultraviolet light, nor can it utilize calcium. Compared with lizards, the facilities to prevent turtles from escaping are relatively simple. As long as water supply facilities are provided and there is a shady place to rest, heat stroke is less likely to occur, and sunbathing is also relatively simple. If the calcium intake of young turtles is insufficient, the turtle shell will easily become soft and unbearable; insufficient vitamin A intake may cause the eyes to turn white. When the above phenomenon occurs, in addition to the problem of insufficient vitamin A and calcium, it may also involve long-term feeding of low-nutrient food, insufficient ultraviolet rays and other problems, which may be caused by mistakes in the feeding method. It is necessary to provide nutritious and balanced food attentively, use sun lamp to perform sunbathing, etc., and completely change the breeding environment.
